Perhaps the altseason will not start with fireworks. Perhaps it is already starting timidly, hesitantly, disguised as partial recovery. The truth is that there is no siren announcing its beginning. When everyone is sure it has arrived, it will already be too late.
But what are the indicators that can point to this much-anticipated altseason?
First: Institutional capital initially enters BTC (the safest asset). When BTC rises significantly, investors take profits and redirect funds to altcoins seeking multiplication.
Second: Bitcoin begins to decrease in its dominance and then Ethereum becomes the protagonist. $ETH is the 'gateway' to altcoins; if it consistently surpasses $BTC in percentage appreciation, it signals a greater appetite for risk.
This is where an insane race begins as altcoins of medium and small market capitalization start to see gains of 200%, 300% every week (some with gains of up to 500% and 1000% in a single day).
As the charts flicker green and red in a nervous cadence, the altcoin season remains a possible, tangible specter, but still unconfirmed. The crypto market is a master at testing patience, sanity, and convictions. And amid this test, we are left with the question: Are we about to ride a new wave or be swallowed by the current of yet another false hope?
Well, what we know is that only the bold are capable of changing their financial standing. The cryptocurrency market is not a 'game'; it is not a 'bet.' It rewards the brave, those who really study the market and become true investors.
